Intercontinental GT Challenge
editIlott contested the first round of the2021 Intercontinental GT Challenge,the24 Hours of Spa,withIron LynxMotorsport Lab in the No. 71Ferrari 488 GT3.Their race ended prematurely, as the No. 71 was involved in a four-car accident during lap 10.[54]In a bid to win the Manufacturer's championship for the first time,Ferrariannounced in October 2021 that they would contest the remaining two rounds of the three-round championship. Ilott, alongsideAntonio FuocoandAlessio Rovera(later replaced byDavide Rigon), were announced as drivers in the No. 71 Ferrari entry for the2021 Indianapolis 8 Hours,this time racing withAF Corse.[55][56]
2024
editAfter failing to secure a full-time IndyCar seat for2024having been dropped by Juncos Hollinger Racing last minute, Ilott moved to theFIA World Endurance Championshipfor his campaign, piloting the 12 car forJota Sportsponsored byTom Brady,alongsideNorman NatoandWill Stevens.[57]The team would score their maiden top-class podium during the first race inQatar,after battling for podium positions throughout the race and the Peugeot breaking down before the finish, helping the team secure a P2 in the race to start the season on a high.[58]Two rounds later Ilott, together with his teammate Will Stevens, got his first win at Spa-Francorchamps after a mid-race red flag.[59]This also marked the first win in hypercar for Jota. After the win, an unlucky streak struck Ilott. He showed great speeds in the qualifying sessions, always starting off the weekend on a high but continuing with the lowest lows, like crashing out in the last minute ofthe second practice of Le Mans,leading to the complete change of chassis in mere days, which not only made the team miss Hyperpole but also start on the backfoot. The team however went on to finish 8th, which was their original starting position, strongly contesting the whole race without any big troubles. He then crashed out of the race at the 6 hours of Sao Paolo after coming out of the pits, sending the car back into the garage, leading them to finish last in class. The unfortunate events followed him to the Circuit of the Americas, where the carsuffered an electrical issue 2 hours into the race,which they couldn't fix in time. The Jota squad took the FIA World Cup title after finishing fifth during the 6 hours of Fuji, finishing as the first privateer car. Originally they started the race in p16 after a disastrous qualifying, however the race turned a bit messy which allowed them to fight for podium positions closer to the end. The next and last race of the season is the 8 hours of Bahrain, which the team contends as the crowned FIA World Cup champions. Ilott is departing the team at the end of the season.
